capitalism and imperialism is unprecedented in it’s global reach. if you look at human history you will see mostly asshole leaders being violently deposed whenever they start getting cocky.
it’s that time of existential threat again, and we shouldn’t hide behind empty claims of human nature for our duty when it has been shown time and again a better world is possible.
this is either defeatism or justification for inaction. in a we can’t possibly improve things so let’s succumb to nuclear winter (despite things being much better not that many years ago) kind of way.
that just isn’t true at all for most of humanity’s history. we lived in relatively peaceful communes for the vast majority of our history. human nature is cooperative.
and you might be way too used to western antics to notice quite a lot of our leaders did the best they could throughout history.
